The comments are overwhelmingly supportive of anti-COVID measures. There is no wave of support in that post saying COVID went fine. They are clearly stating that essential workers were abused and only the privileged got to quarantine.

I’m not sure why you’re deliberately misleading people here.

“Keep going to your job” and you asserting that there are no jobs are not ideas that are in conflict. Why are you intentionally misconstruing the message that, no, you shouldn’t quit your previously limited job and kill your landlord and lose all agency and income because your boss won’t wear a mask? How does there being no jobs contradict the point of keeping your job and stability instead of throwing it away?

Yes, Covid is bad. We get it. We get the data that shows it’s a horrific gateway to disability and disease. Nobody is disputing the data. But so is homelessness. Thus, the saying, what are you going to do, quit and kill your landlord?

“Hold a job” isn’t some condemnation of people who get laid off, or are having a tough time in the market. It’s to counter the online left narrative that yes, you should definitely kill your boss and search for the mythical unicorn job that totally will pay you $200k for crafting artisanal leftist smoothies.

Encouraging people to do this is equivalent to promoting self-harm. I’ve seen too many accounts just on Hexbear of people who fall into the echo chamber you are encouraging, ruining their lives and making a post going “well I guess I’m homeless now.”

So, if you’re not going to kill your boss and execute your landlord and personally start the communist revolution, you need to live first. That’s what this is about. It doesn’t have to be 24/7 shit.
